So if I read this correctly, libcatmandu-perl cannot migrate because it breaks the test suite of libcatmandu-sru-perl in testing. The version of libcatmandu-sru-perl in unstable fixes this, but cannot migrate because it has a versioned dependency on libcatmandu-perl that is only satisfied in unstable. I believe the preferred way to get these to migrate together is to declare that libcatmandu-perl Breaks the older libcatmandu-sru-perl versions. Alternatively, just waiting it out will probably work too: once testing removal happens, the newer packages can migrate on their own. However, if the test suite breakage is not just a technicality, the missing Breaks makes it possible for users to partially upgrade their systems to a broken combination. Paul, please correct me if I'm mistaken above :) -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
